Product Description: Taprostene sodium is a partial agonist at prostanoid prostacyclin (IP) receptors. Taprostene sodium interacts additively with Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (HY-101952), ONO-AE1-259 (selective EP2 agonist), and acetylcholine. Taprostene sodium exerts a significant cardioprotection[1].
Formula: C24H29NaO5
